This is not how immortals cultivate

Chapter 256: Zener, your sweetheart smells so good!
South China Sea, bamboo forest.

Xiang Yuan did not see Mr. Bai Yue in the lotus pond, so he scattered some fish food. Thinking that Mr. Bai Yue was still in retreat, he quickly walked towards the Wensi Hall.

"Senior sister, I'm coming in."

In front of the quiet room door, Xiang Yuan knocked politely, and without waiting for the other party to reply, he pushed the door open and walked in.

Although coming to Zizhulin is like going home, he can go wherever he wants without any restrictions or constraints, but life must have a sense of ritual and the necessary procedures must be followed.

Inside the house, Buddhist Bai Yue was sitting cross-legged on a white lotus platform, her jade-like face shining like an autumn moon. Her whole body was like a blooming white lotus, emitting a rich fragrance, which made Xiang Yuan rub his hands subconsciously.

"Hey hey hey..."

Xiang Yuan took two steps forward, slapped his head, remembered that he was here to do serious business today, took off his shoes, jumped onto the lotus platform, and pushed Bai Yue to the side.

Your lotus platform is nice. Let me sit on it.

Ms. Bai Yue opened her beautiful eyes and gave Xiang Yuan a faint look. She doted on him as usual without blaming him for anything.

"Sister, please change your clothes. I want to see the Bodhisattva Guanyin."

"..."

Mr. Bai Yue spat lightly. His junior brother was still harboring evil intentions and wanted Avalokitesvara to do his hair for him. Mr. Bai Yue pretended not to hear and, with just one move, he captured the enemy.

She still said the same thing, there is only a senior sister, no great master.

Xiang Yuan had an embarrassed look on his face. Master Bai Yue was always like this, stepping on the accelerator at every turn. Several times he had no intention of doing that, but he couldn't get out of the car because the car doors were welded shut, so he was forced to buy a ticket and get on the highway.

I can’t do it today because I have something important to do. I’ll have to come another day.

Snapped!
Xiang Yuan slapped Bai Yue's hand away and sternly rebuked: "Sister, I was talking to you nicely, why did you touch me? Look at you, your eyebrows are full of spring, your eyes are as charming as silk, how can you be pure at all? And why are you so skilled?"

Why is senior sister so skilled? Doesn’t junior brother have any idea?

Mr. Bai Yue could not utter these words at all. He was oppressed by Xiang Yuan's righteous gaze. He stammered, felt angry and annoyed, and his ears turned red with shame.

"That's better than the other. Since you haven't changed after repeated admonitions, I won't pursue the matter today."

Xiang Yuan held the beauty in his arms and flirted with her, saying a lot of sweet nothings. When Bai Yue was confused, he whispered in her ear to make his intentions clear.

Borrow the clean bottle to wash away all the impurities and return to your true self.

After listening to the story, Bai Yue realized that he had misunderstood Xiang Yuan's purpose. Annoyed that he only said half of his words, he raised his hand and pushed him off the lotus platform.

Xiang Yuan fell headfirst, and after he got up, he saw a dizzy white light in front of his eyes. He felt the condescending look of Guanyin Bodhisattva and his heart was pounding.

The look of one looking at wet garbage, so disgusted that even the Bodhisattva Guanyin is too lazy to rescue it.

Relying on the fact that Mr. Bai Yue was obedient to him in every way, Xiang Yuan shamelessly climbed onto the lotus platform again. However, he was blocked by the white light and failed to get what he wanted. He snorted twice to show his dissatisfaction.

"When you have accomplished your mission, you will return to paradise and sit on the lotus platform."

Wearing the skin of Bodhisattva Guanyin, Bai Yue Jushi became extremely holy. Although he still went along with Xiang Yuan in everything, he would not let him do whatever he wanted as usual.

"Forget about sitting on the lotus platform, unless Senior Sister and I sit on the same one."

Xiang Yuan said a few flowery words, and seeing that Bai Yue's expression remained unchanged, he felt helpless and stretched out his snow-white and clean little hand, asking Bai Yue to hurry up, as the Wasteland was still waiting for a bath.

Bai Yue Lay Buddhist raised his hand and the Yangliu Jingping fell into Xiang Yuan's hand. He smiled and said, "Junior brother, you have a kind heart. You will definitely gain great merits by going there."

This is also the thing that Mr. Bai Yue likes most about Xiang Yuan. In the eyes of others, Xiang Yuan is not good in this or that, and he will take revenge for any slight.

If you say something bad to him, he will return it a hundredfold. He is really petty.

Mr. Bai Yue was also deeply distressed. He was called a waste and was tormented by Xiang Yuan many times. He wanted to draw his sword and die with him.

After getting to know him, I discovered that Xiang Yuanzhai was kind-hearted and always lent a helping hand when others needed it most. His good deeds were not done for fame, but out of his genuine compassion.

Looking back, that petty and annoying look is actually kind of cute.

This is what it means when a lover sees beauty in his lover. Bai Yue Jushi wears tinted glasses, and because of his favoritism, Xiang Yuan's shortcomings become advantages.

"Master Jingyun also said that this trip will bring merit. Are you interested in going with us, senior sister?" Xiang Yuan made the invitation.

"When Bodhisattva Avalokitesvara comes down to the mortal world, he must ask the Emperor of Heaven for permission. It will take him a long time to go back and forth, unlike my junior brother who can go and come back quickly." Mr. Bai Yue politely declined, not wanting to take advantage of the situation and gain merit for nothing.

Xiang Yuan saw the situation and did not force it. He asked how to use the bottle and whispered: "The Dharma is not passed on to the ears of others, and the Tao is not passed on to non-humans. This is a serious matter. Senior sister, please speak softly. It will be bad if others hear it."

Seeing him shamelessly approaching and trying to take advantage of him, Master Bai Yue shook his head slightly and whispered a few words in his ear.

Just pamper him!
----

Wasteland.

Xiang Yuan is standing on auspicious clouds and holding a pure bottle in his hand. Behind him appears the shadow of the statue of the Great Emperor Zhenwu. His divine power is as majestic as the sun in the sky, and his divine grace is as vast and boundless as the sea.

The pure bottle is crystal clear, the willow branches are graceful and without a single flaw. The bottle is filled with nectar, clear as a mirror, and exudes a faint fragrance.

There are also colorful white lights, which complement the colorful black on Xiang Yuan's body.

As Xiang Yuan moved, the nectar water turned into auspicious clouds, and fine rain fell, nourishing all things. Points of crystal light flickered in the sky, as if the essence of the stars had descended to the earth, bringing endless blessings.

Behind Xiang Yuan, Guan Yan was carrying the Zhenwu Soap Carving Flag and waving it diligently, making clouds and rain flow, ensuring that auspicious clouds filled every part of the sky in the wasteland.

Originally, Xiang Yuan could handle this kind of small matter by himself if he had three heads and six arms, and it would make no difference whether he brought Guan Yan with him or not.

As a result, after asking casually, he learned that the wasteland world has been passed down to this day, and no one knows who the gods and Buddhas are. When he mentioned the name of Zhenwu Emperor, Guan Yan had no idea.

In the wasteland world, pragmatism is the main focus and this is not popular.

It is understandable that whether you worship gods or not will not affect your life. But if you don’t distribute eggs, even if the Great Emperor Zhenwu and the Three Pure Ones come, it will be useless.

If you pretend to be cool but get no feedback, your happiness will be halved. This is wrong!

Xiang Yuan decisively took Guan Yan with him and lent him the Zhenwu Soap Carving Flag, allowing him to personally experience the great supernatural power and might that could change the world, and understand how powerful the top immortals and gods are.

Look, Guan Yan’s expression changed immediately.

Furthermore, although the wasteland world does not know who the Zhenwu Emperor is, the name of Guanyin Bodhisattva is still famous. When they learned that the porcelain bottle in Xiang Yuan's hand was a sacred object held by Guanyin Bodhisattva, their eyes became even more admiring.

Auspicious clouds dropped rain of sweet dew, and wherever they passed, the desolation and decay of the wasteland were washed away bit by bit. The dry and cracked land came back to life, grass and trees sprouted, and a layer of clear water gradually accumulated in the rivers and lakes.

Blue sky and white clouds, green mountains and clear water, the whole world looks brand new.

The people of the wasteland ran out of the dungeon, raised their arms, bathed in the drizzle, spun around, scooped up the rain with their hands, or opened their mouths wide to taste the rain they had never seen before.

Nourished by the nectar, their fatigue and pain disappeared, their chronic illnesses were swept away, and were replaced by a long-lost peace.

Ordinary people recovered from serious illnesses, and the evil spirits in the bodies of the enhanced ones were cleared away. With the modification of the divine power of the Zhenwu Emperor, their broken limbs were regenerated, and they could run happily on the wet grass and mud with their hands and feet intact after removing the prosthetic limbs.

"This is outrageous. I have such a huge statue floating in the sky, but you don't even know how to kneel down and thank me..."

Xiang Yuan muttered quietly, raised his hand and sent the bottle back to the Heavenly God Realm, and said to Guan Yan beside him: "Corresponding to the number of disasters, this nectar rain will continue for nine days and nine nights, and then return to its origin. The wasteland will be restored to its original state, and there will be no more suffering from the pollution of blood rain."

Guan Yan burst into tears and knelt on her knees to thank the Great Emperor Zhenwu for his mercy.

Xiang Yuan took back the Zhenwu Soap Carving Flag, pointed a finger at Guan Yan's brow, and gave him many cultivation methods, explaining the cultivation route from Qi Refining to Xiantian, with a look of great compassion and satisfaction: "This matter is over, you pass on the skills, and this seat has completed his merits. It's time to leave."

"Wait a moment."

Guan Yan hurriedly spoke up and asked cautiously, "May I ask the Emperor, what is the price?"

At what cost?
You won’t let me go without paying?
Oh, the wasteland emphasizes equal exchange, where there is gain there is loss.

Xiang Yuan raised his eyebrows, his only wish to save the world was to achieve his goal and to show off, he hadn't thought of anything else. But after Guan Yan said that, if he didn't take anything, it would seem that the Great Emperor Zhenwu was too honest.

A good person will be married to someone else, a good god will be abandoned by people, and an honest god is not worthy of being one.

There is no love without reason in the world, and a truly wise person will not give love without reason, because giving without expecting anything in return will only encourage laziness and greed in human nature. What is a great favor today may turn into a great hatred tomorrow.

Human nature is always so complex and needs guidance. If there is only preference but no guidance, one will inevitably go astray.

Maybe Guan Yan didn't mean that, but Xiang Yuan thought of the deeper meaning and nodded with a smile: "It's worth my reminder. Big Sister is really wise. Since you have seen through it, I won't pretend to be a good god now."

"Please tell me clearly, Your Majesty."

Guan Yan breathed a sigh of relief. She didn’t think too much about it. She just knew that free things are the most expensive. If she didn’t accept some benefits from such a great god as Zhenwu Emperor, she was afraid that she would not be able to sleep at night.

"All I ask for is faith. Burning incense and praying are essential during festivals."

Xiang Yuan touched his chin, feeling that the asking price was too low, and added: "I am the Nine Heavens Demon Slayer. I travel the heavens with the important task of subduing demons and monsters. The Three Thousand Worlds are too big for me to conquer alone, and I am still short of heavenly soldiers and generals. You pass down the skills and opportunities. If there are people who can ascend to heaven, they can be soldiers and generals under my command. They will be under my command for the rest of their lives. Anyone who has second thoughts will be punished by heaven and earth."

Guan Yan compared the cultivation method and said, "May I ask the Great Emperor, is the Qiyuan level the Xiantian level?"

"The Qiyuan level is an incomplete innate period. The laws of heaven and earth have changed, and they have to start practicing from the beginning. You are an exception. I have personally shaped your body, and your practice has reached the innate level. You have achieved perfection and can ascend to the upper realm at any time." Xiang Yuan explained.

"Then when will I ascend to the upper realm and become a soldier under the Great Emperor?"

"..."

How can you give it for free?

Xiang Yuan just said it casually and had never thought of recruiting Guan Yan under his command, but the latter took the initiative to volunteer. If he refused, it would seem inconsistent.

The divine power spread out and checked Guan Yan's inner thoughts, and he found that he was overthinking again.

Guan Yan was not in a hurry to ascend to the upper realm to become a god, but he was worried that if he ascended now, those nobles would climb up and the underground city would become what it used to be.

What an angel!

This sense of responsibility made Xiang Yuan feel ashamed. He pointed out and bestowed the title of Guan Yuanshuai among the thirty-six generals: "You have some fate with me, so I grant you the title of a general under my command. You still have worldly affairs to deal with in the human world. Go and come back quickly, and don't delay the military opportunity."

When the divine power entered his body, Guan Yan's appearance changed drastically. His face was still the same, without the carefully trimmed long beard, but he looked a little more heroic.

He was wearing armor, his shoulders were as sharp as a knife, his waist was as thin as a silk ribbon, and his battle robe fluttered in the wind, showing him both noble and sharp, yet also graceful and agile.

I didn't see the cool saw of Erye, maybe it was a reference to the official history. Hot knowledge, Qinglong Yanyuedao is a dumbbell in the Tang and Song dynasties, mainly used for practicing arm strength, not a cold weapon for actual combat, which is the ancient version of lifting weights.

Similar fitness equipment includes millstones, tripods, and sluice gates, all of which can cause either death or injury.

Xiang Yuan looked her up and down for a moment, and still felt that Guan Yan looked better without clothes. Pah, she would look better in white. He said majestically: "After finishing the affairs on earth, ascend immediately and go to Xuanwu Tongchu Mansion to find my secretary Bai Ze. Everything will be arranged by her."

"Subordinates take orders."

----

Qianyuan Realm.

Xiang Yuan stepped out of the Yama Gate and sighed that life was not easy. The three thousand worlds were in tatters and the Great Emperor Zhenwu was mending them. This trip kept him very busy.

He took out the enlightenment cushion and sat cross-legged, consolidating his state of innate great perfection while pondering the right time to break through. After much thought, he felt that he was lacking a person with a destiny whom he could kill in order to upgrade.

"Where can I find this experience pack?"

Xiang Yuan looked distressed. He couldn't find fault with him for no reason. If someone with experience came to him...

"What are you thinking? There is no such good thing."

Xiang Yuan was muttering to himself when he noticed the jade disk in his palm beating. He didn't know whether it was Xiao Lingyue or Chaner who took the initiative to contact him and wanted to meet him immediately.

No one answered the call twice. It would be impossible to wait until the third time to answer the call. Xiang Yuan slowly put away the enlightenment cushion, took a step out, and walked into the Yama Gate.

……

Let’s go back in time for a moment.

When Zener saw Jinse, the Saintess of Huangquan, he didn't say a word and escaped by moving through space. His figure flashed continuously and he left the Earth Dragon Castle without caring about the direction or purpose, just to find a way to escape.

Grove.

Run quickly.

Jinse followed Chaner like a cat playing with a mouse, confining the space, blocking the escape route, and step by step forcing Chaner into a corner until there was no escape.

In the deep valley, Chaner closed his eyes and sensed the surrounding space, and found a secret place, like a small cave. His face turned pale in an instant, and he knew that he had arrived at Jinse's territory and there was no possibility of escape.

"Why do you want to leave, Chan'er? Can I harm you? Don't forget that you can achieve your current level of cultivation thanks to me."

Jinse took a step forward, her fairy-like figure was ethereal, as if she didn't exist between heaven and earth. Seeing that Chan'er was frightened, she teased softly, "Chan'er has grown taller, and his mind has become more and more evil. He is not as well-behaved and sensible as before, and he is not lovable anymore!"

Zener gritted his teeth, having nowhere to escape and unwilling to sit and wait for death, he held a moon-lit sword in his hand, summoned the power of heaven and earth, cleansing the surrounding space and bringing it into silence.

Jinse was quite surprised, her beautiful eyes sparkling: "What kind of opportunity did Chaner get to make such great progress? I am really impressed...but what about the strange tattoo on your palm?"

The relationship between Chaner and Jinse is like that between Ana Heiyan and Jinse, both of whom are reincarnations raised by the Holy Maiden Huangquan.

From the beginning to the end, the Holy Maiden of Huangquan was just Jinse. She went around in circles in the reincarnation, and was stuck in the Tongyou period every time, and could never break through the mysterious gate and go further.

Jinse followed the clues to find the shackles that trapped her, and came to the conclusion that the Taoist master had tampered with her martial arts.

The belief of Huangquan Dao is the Huangquan Mother Tree. Regardless of fists and feet, judging from the faith and doctrine, the status of the Saint is extremely high, and the Taoist master has to be humble when seeing her. In order to suppress the Saint's restless thoughts and to consolidate his own power, the Taoist master made some changes to the Saint's skills, making it difficult for her to complete them.

Apart from this, Jinse couldn't think of any other possibility.

Seeing that the road ahead was a dead end, Jinse gave up reincarnation and looked for another way to break free from the shackles.

There are evil demons everywhere in southern Xinjiang. The Way of Illusion, the Way of Bliss, and the Palace of the King of Demons all have their merits. There is no need to fight to the death with the Way of Yellow Springs. Changing track may be a way out.

Jinse traveled all over southern Xinjiang and by chance, she obtained the means of illusion, which allowed her to reincarnate without entering the cycle of reincarnation.

By taking in the joys and sorrows, the loves and hates of others, and entering into the Tao with the heart, it is like experiencing reincarnation personally, and making up for one's own imperfections.

Before Chaner, Ana Heiyan was the reincarnation of Jinse.

Jinse wanted to gain insights into the cultivation of the Way of Bliss, but didn't want to dirty her body, so she asked Ana Heiyan to do it for her. She would wait for Ana to complete her cultivation and then pick the fruit for her own use.

During this period, the next reincarnation, Zener, was cultivated.

Unlike Ana Heiyan, Chaner grew up in Huangquan Road since childhood. He combines the two secret skills of the Saint of Huangquan Road and the Saint of Silver Moon Palace. He is the reincarnation that Jinse values ​​most.

In order to prevent the mouse from growing too big and eating the cat, Jinse made some changes to the secret method of the Yellow Spring Saint, so that Zener only had the shadow of the Yellow Spring Mother Tree, but it was like a tree without roots and could not be complete.

Afterwards, he used various methods, such as abolishing Chaner's body-building method, under the pretext of protecting him, but in fact he was just trimming and pruning him, so that he could grow in the direction he expected.

Ana Heiyan knew the future outcome, so she destroyed her own foundation just to preserve herself. Later, she manipulated the ancient god's bloodline, which was really painstaking.

She had the means, but her luck was bad. The tadpole died before she could find its mother.

Jinsebai had waited for decades and was extremely angry. She chased after the culprit Bai Shumo, but found that the latter had left southern Xinjiang and was nowhere to be found. She then decisively came to look for Chaner.

As for Chaner's current realm and strength, they are still a little immature and it is far from the time to pick the fruits, but Jinse doesn't want to wait any longer and is determined to pick the fruits even if it means hastening their growth.

The valley was empty and quiet, the battle was over.

There was blood oozing from the corners of Chaner's mouth and his face was pale. He used all his tricks but only managed to remove a thin layer of gauze from Jinse's face.

Not only is his realm far inferior to his, but all his skills were passed down by the other party, so he can't break his moves at all.

Chaner wanted to move again, but his soul shook and he was restrained in an instant. He could only manifest the phantom of the Yellow Spring Mother Tree to resist desperately.

The mother tree lacks its foundation and is replaced by the Silver Moon Chain. The skills are not suitable and it is difficult to achieve great things.

A red light flashed in Jinse's eyes, and she poured all of her insights from the Spirit Transformation Stage into Chaner's body. It was a simple and rough enlightenment that stung Chaner's soul and made him suffer terribly.

"Zen'er, what exactly is that tattoo in your hand?"

Jinse asked without waiting for Chaner's reply and directly activated the secret method to look through Chaner's memory. Her beautiful eyes flashed with strange light and the corners of her mouth curled up, thinking that good fortune had come.

"Zhan'er is truly blessed. The Yanfu Gate and I have a predestined relationship. You have held this for me until now, and you are offering it today. You deserve a reward."

"Zhan'er has really grown up, and he is greedy for love between men and women. He has a sweetheart..."

"Tsk tsk, your sweetheart is very dishonest. What you said is just empty talk and sweet words, just to deceive Chaner's body!"

"It's also my fault that I didn't see it well. I only saw the boy's handsome face, but didn't see the ugliness in his heart. I almost let him deceive you with his sweet words..."

"Oh, it turns out that he was the one who killed Ana Heiyan. What a pleasant surprise."

Jinse was saying that every grievance has its perpetrator, but suddenly she lost her sense and could not see into Chaner's heart. She saw the shadow of the Yellow Spring Mother Tree stretching out behind him. Her expression did not change, but she was quite confused.

Huangquan mother tree versus Huangquan mother tree, the incomplete mother tree is even more powerful. Why is that?
Could it be that the Yellow Spring Mother Tree with its roots cut off was the real one, and her calculations led to the birth of Zener?

Jinse didn't think much about it. Seeing Chan'er struggling, she smiled and raised her hand to point out, "Chan'er doesn't want me to see your sweetheart, but I must see him. He has a lot of powerful medicine, which is also an opportunity for you to give to me."

As the finger was pointed out, Chaner's body became uncontrollable. He took out the jade disk and held it in his hand, and took the initiative to contact Xiang Yuan.

Her face was filled with fear and her eyes were blurred with tears. She prayed that Xiang Yuan would not respond. Even if he was just angry, it would be good if he could wait three or five times before responding.

However, it did not happen. The halo portal opened, and the figure that had been haunting her and making her feel uneasy walked out of the Yama Gate.

Xiang Yuan stepped out of the Yanfu Gate and was stunned when he saw two beauties, one big and one small, in front of him.

He didn't know Jinse, nor did he know who the other person was. He found that she was somewhat similar to Queen Dugu from the Wusheng Realm, and instantly realized that this was Chaner's enemy.

If my guess is correct, she has been chasing Chaner!

Just as he was thinking about it, he noticed that Chaner had blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were wet with tears. He looked pitiful and helpless, and it was obvious that he was seriously injured. Teng suddenly became furious and drew out the Jinglan Sword with red eyes.

Lone star chasing the moon!

A bright light flashed and stopped in front of Jinse, and the sword light was only an inch away from touching her slender jade neck.

But it is just this small inch, the abyss is hard to cross and the natural chasm is hard to navigate.

Jinse looked at Chaner with smiling eyes, suppressed the Jinglan Knife, raised her hands to hold Xiang Yuan's neck, and snuggled in his arms with a wisp of fragrance.

The white fingertips brushed across Xiang Yuan's face, and the latter was as if he was under a spell, his mind was in a trance and he didn't know where he was.

"Zen'er, your sweetheart smells so good!"

Jinse squinted her eyes and lay on Xiangyuan's chest, jokingly saying, "Zhen'er got this treasure, but he only took blood instead of essence, which is really a waste of heaven's gift... Although I have never had sex, I do know some essence-collecting methods of the Extreme Bliss Dao, so I will let you live a few more days and see how I perform."

There are many methods of Cai Bu. Jinse deliberately mentioned the matters between men and women just to amuse Chan'er and to occupy her lover in front of her.

But even though we know this, the sound of the dream is like the sound of immortals, so alluring that it makes people imagine a lot.

Zener even saw the scene of the two of them making love and lingering, and his heart ached deeply.

"Let him go!"

Chaner regretted and cried out, tears quietly falling, resentful for involving Xiangyuan. Knowing that he couldn't escape today, he still wanted to be emotional, hurting others and himself.

"I'm afraid that won't work. From today on, I am Chan'er, and he is your sweetheart, so he is my husband..."

Jinse leaned against Xiangyuan, rubbing his ears and ears, torturing Chaner bit by bit, and chuckled, "But I am Chaner, but Chaner is not me. Your shadow should not remain in my husband's heart, just like this token of love, it should belong to me, not you."

As she spoke, she pushed open Xiang Yuan's left collar in front of Chaner, slightly opened her red lips, and bit towards the tooth mark.

The flesh was penetrated and blood spurted out.

Jinse's body stiffened, her eyes full of disbelief. She lowered her head slightly and saw the Jinglan knife piercing her chest and abdomen, with bright red blood slowly flowing out.

How is it possible? He is in the innate stage and his soul is restrained, how could he wake up easily?

"This item was given to a loved one. It is a treasure and you cannot touch it."

Xiang Yuan held Jinse's shoulders, and used his innate strength to hold her in his arms. A fierce red light flashed in his eyes, and he said in a fierce voice: "I always go along with her and indulge her, for fear of making her unhappy. How dare you make her cry!"

The Jinglan knife stabbed down, disappearing to the hilt.
